"Eternity means nothing to me if it means that I have to carry the guilt of destroying you." ----------------- Wylie Moore, a Reaper who clings to morality in the absence of life, has made a fatal choice. She's abandoned her oath, and neglected to collect a soul when its fated time came. When an unlikely ally joins her side-Finn Halstead, her silent sworn rival-a timeline is severed, and a soul spared. But the afterlife isn't what it seems, and their act of generosity is deemed a crime, pitting them against the commanding powers themselves for judgement. With a guilty verdict on their hands, it is decided that the two of them will be punished in the worst way possible for a Reaper: Resurrection. Thrust into the rural hometown Wylie grew up in, with her murderer still running free and her memory of her death severed, the two Reapers must navigate a twisting world of lies, ominous shadows with pointed teeth, a forced friendship, and their own growing feelings for one another. But Wylie's murderer remembers. They want her dead again-for good this time-and will stop at nothing to see it come to fruition, even if it costs the lives of others. A Reaper's greatest temptation is revenge. To succumb is to be destroyed. To Refuse is to suffer. Wylie will do anything to get back at her killer. Finn will do anything to atone for past mistakes. Even if it means destroying what he was sent to protect.

Every night, she dreams of a boy bathed in moonlight - a figure who holds her gently, creating an intimate connection in a world that vanishes with the first light of dawn. Each evening, he returns to her, aware that with the arrival of morning, she will forget him, their moments together fading like wisps of smoke. This bittersweet cycle continues, allowing her to experience joy in the fleeting embrace of this ethereal love. However, one particular night unfolds differently; the morning does not arrive as expected. The darkness lingers, and for the first time, the dream does not dissipate into reality. Instead, it transforms into something more tangible, a lasting presence that brings both comfort and confusion. As the hours stretch on, she finds herself wrapped in his warmth, exploring the depths of their connection without the impending threat of daylight. In this unwavering twilight, memories that typically fade become vivid and rich. The boy, a keeper of secrets and emotions, guides her through this realm between realms, where longing and desire blossom in unexpected ways. Their quiet love, unconfined by the boundaries of time, unveils the complexities of existence, weaving a tapestry rich with depth and meaning, suspended between two worlds.
